title: Hybrid surgical repair of complete tubular colonic duplication associated with anovestibular and anocutaneous fistulas.
abstract: Complete tubular colonic duplication is a rare and complex anomaly. We present a new technique consisting of anterior sagittal anorectoplasty and fenestration of the duplicated colon using a hybrid method, involving single-incisional laparoscope-assisted and endoscopic procedures, for a case of complete tubular colonic duplication associated with anovestibular and anocutaneous fistulas.
